Students must also have completed the following courses, with no grade lower than C+ in either of them:

• Students transferring from other universities must have completed equivalent courses and obtained the equivalent GPA and minimum grades in those courses before they can declare a Fashion Media major.

• The Journalism Division has a focus on and commitment to diversity, recognizing the need for diversity in media and communications in the 21st century.

• Fashion media majors may not minor in Journalism; however, they may major in it. Fashion media majors who double major in journalism must choose an additional minor or major outside the Journalism division.

• Required courses must be passed with a grade of C- or better to count for credit toward the major in fashion media.
